Chapter XXXIII: A Silver Ticket

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

After a short dead silence, the crowd was in an uproar!

"What did he say! The one who instructed him to kill Cao Chengwu was actually Cao Chengwen!? ”

"How is this possible? That's a brother! ”

"Speaking of brothers, those two are not from the same mother's womb. Didn't Liu Sijia expose this matter in public before, but in the end it was over? I didn't expect Liu Si to jump out and bite now, this thing - I can't say for sure! ”

"Yes! I remember that Cao Chengwen was taken to the yamen for interrogation, but in the end he was acquitted, and now this ......"

Everyone was talking, and the executioner's knife was also hanging in the air, not falling, and looked back at Yang Zhen in a tangled way.

At this time, Yang Zhen was also stunned, he never imagined that Liu Si would actually retract his confession at the execution ground!

How can this be?

Everyone watched, Liu Si shouted injustice, if he continued to order people to be executed, he would definitely be criticized.

If this news is heard by the people above, it will damage his official name!

Therefore, no matter how much he wants to end this case immediately, it is impossible to end it smoothly!

He looked serious and asked in a deep voice:

"Liu Si, what do you mean by that!"

At the same time, the Cao father and son of Cao Ji Restaurant were also caught off guard by Liu Si.

Cao Deping jumped up from his chair almost immediately, furious: "What is he crazy about!" ”

Cao Chengwen's heart was also beating wildly and panicked.

"Daddy! He, he's spewing blood! You've got to help me, Daddy! ”

Cao Deping blocked his chest in one breath, couldn't go up and down, and his face was pale.

Of course he knew the ins and outs of this matter, but he must not allow Liu Si to expose all this!

Otherwise, his only son who is left will not be able to save it!

Cao Deping gritted his teeth and said: "He shouts to him, as long as he has no evidence in his hand, it is all slander!" Didn't they do anything to you before? It was nothing more than a futile struggle before he died! ”

Hearing him say this, Cao Chengwen was finally a little relieved, but he didn't know why, looking at Liu Si's crazy look, he was always a little uneasy.

He thought in a low voice: "No, it's going to be fine, I told him before, as long as he is obedient, I guarantee that his wife and children are safe - wait!" ”

Cao Chengwen suddenly remembered something, his eyes widened suddenly, and he searched through the crowd.

However, I looked back and forth several times, but I never saw Zhou's figure.

"Zhou didn't come to the execution ground to see him off!?"

Cao Chengwen muttered incredulously.

This is the last side they can see, and it is said that the Zhou family will definitely come, but now-

What went wrong!?

……

On the execution ground, Yang Zhen opened his mouth and asked: "Liu Si! You said that Cao Chengwen instructed you to kill Cao Chengwu, do you have evidence!? ”

Hearing this, everyone pricked up their ears and rushed forward to hear more clearly.

Ye Chutang stood behind the crowd and watched this scene quietly, his expression calm and indifferent.

The next moment, I heard Liu Si gritting his teeth and shouting: "Yes!" I have proof! ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

- Liu Si actually really has evidence!?

Yang Zhen was also secretly taken aback, and his eyelids jumped.

During the last interrogation, Liu Si clearly said that everything was done by him alone, but now he not only retracted his confession, but even said that there was evidence!

In this situation, Yang Zhen had no choice but to continue to ask: "What evidence?" ”

Liu Si spit out a mouthful of blood foam, and said hatefully: "Cao Chengwen has been jealous of Cao Chengwu for a long time, and when he heard that the master planned to hand over the restaurant to Cao Chengwu, he decided to do it." Because Cao Chengwu was allergic to river shrimp, he specially called me that day and asked me to go to the lake to catch shrimp, and then chop the shrimp into a meat puree, mix it in the porridge, and send it to Cao Chengwu. ”

He took a deep breath and continued: "At first, I didn't dare, but he promised me, saying that he would give me a very good reward, and said that when the child was old in a few years, he would send my child to study in the academy. The jade wrench is buried under the third bluestone slab at the corner of Chengxi Street! If you don't believe me, you can send someone to find it now! ”

Yang Zhen frowned and asked, "Jade wrench?" What kind of jade wrench? ”

Liu Si sneered: "Qingyu wrench, it was given to him by his father a few years ago, and he has always been a treasure." ”

Hearing this, Cao Chengwen's legs went limp.

In order to make Liu Si obedient before, he did deliberately send this as a token, but the incident happened too quickly, and before he could find a chance to retrieve the jade wrench, Liu Si was arrested.

Later, when he was taken to the yamen for interrogation, he also asked Liu Si about this, and Liu Si said that he lost it when he went to the lake and couldn't find it.

Although Cao Chengwen was annoyed in his heart, he had no other way but to give up.

Coupled with the fact that he deliberately threatened Zhou's mother and son at that time, he was even more sure that Liu Si would not dare to talk nonsense.

Who knows-

Cao Deping kicked Cao Chengwen and shouted angrily: "What are you still doing!" Go down and explain! ”

……

When Cao Chengwen came to the execution ground, Yang Zhen was already preparing to send someone to find the jade wrench.

He wanted to stop them, but in the end he endured it, and only hurried to the front, shouting, "My lord! Treat unjustly! Wronged! ”

When everyone turned around and saw that it was him, they exchanged glances, and then quickly gave way to the middle way.

Cao Chengwen panted: "My lord! I've lost that jade wrench for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be stolen by Liu Si! He slandered me! He slandered me! ”

This reason does not sound impossible, after all, a wrench is not ironclad evidence after all.

Yang Zhen's brows furrowed even tighter.

didn't want to fight at this time, Liu Si actually spoke again.

"My lord, I have one more proof! When Cao Chengwen instructed me to do this, the silver ticket he gave me was specially taken out from Qianzhuang. At that time, he was looking at the account book of the restaurant, and his hand was stained with ink, and the silver ticket was unfortunately stained with half of his finger print, and the silver ticket was also hidden in my house. ”

Cao Chengwen could hardly believe what he heard.

He pointed at Liu Si and scolded: "You are talking nonsense! When have I ever given a silver ticket! ”

Liu Si closed his eyes and didn't look at him again.

Yang Zhen twisted his eyebrows: "Go, find the silver ticket too!" ”

The stakes were high, and the people below moved quickly, and they rushed back after a while.

"My lord! The jade wrench and the silver ticket are here! ”

Yang Zhen looked at Cao Chengwen: "You come to Bibi, is this your fingerprint?" ”

Without waiting for Cao Chengwen to speak, Wu Xu and another official had already stepped forward, grabbed his hand and pressed it on the paper, and then presented it.

"My lord, please take a look."

Yang Zhen picked up the silver ticket and compared it with the fingerprint that had just been printed in his hand.

Immediately, he snorted coldly.

"The fingerprint on this is exactly the same as the pattern on your left index finger!"

Cao Chengwen didn't want to think about it: "Impossible! I gave him a silver ingot that day, and there was something wrong with this silver ticket! ”

As soon as the words came out, the surroundings instantly fell into a dead silence.

Cao Chengwen's mind suddenly emptied, and a chill rose from the soles of his feet.

He just ...... What was said?

On the other side, Yip's Medical Center.

Xiao Wu pinched his purse and sighed.

Ay.

- The silver ticket that I finally saved is gone!
